Pimlico 80cm Square Dining Table: Seats Four, Black Metal Frame, Oak, Walnut or Black
By Furniture1002 min read
The Pimlico is the small table done properly: 80cm square, on angular black metal legs, seating four one a side in a footprint that fits a kitchen corner, an alcove or a flat. It comes with an oak-effect, walnut-effect or black top, and it is the table for a household of four or fewer who want to eat at a real table rather than a breakfast bar.
What it is
A compact square dining table with a wood-effect top and a sturdy black metal frame. The product page states 80cm wide, 80cm deep and 75cm high, a frame height of approximately 72cm and a base width of 43.5cm, and describes it as seating up to four for everyday meals, coffee, studying or entertaining.
Who it suits
Four people in a small space. A square table puts one chair on each side and wastes nothing, which is why it suits a kitchen, an apartment or a dining nook where a rectangle would block the room and a round table would leave dead corners.
It does not stretch to six. That is the trade, and it is a fair one for the space it saves.
The three tops
- Oak-effect is the lightest and the one in our photograph; it suits a small kitchen and pale chairs.
- Walnut-effect is warmer and pairs with darker upholstered chairs.
- Black is the most modern, and the one for a monochrome scheme with black-legged chairs.
The frame is black on all three.
Which chairs
Four chairs, one a side, and they need to be narrow enough not to fight the corners. The Dany is compact and suits the oak or walnut tops; the Cheer is sold singly, which suits a table of exactly four. Black metal legs match the frame; wooden legs soften it.
Living with it
A damp cloth for the top; a dry one for the frame. Check the leg bolts after the first month.

Frequently asked questions
How big is the Pimlico?
The product page states 80cm wide, 80cm deep and 75cm high, with a frame height of about 72cm and a base width of 43.5cm. It seats up to four, one a side.
Why square for four?
Four people, four sides, one chair each, in a footprint that fits a corner or an alcove no other shape would use. It is the most space-efficient way to seat four that exists.
Can it seat six?
No. A square table for four is a table for four. If you need six, look at the rectangular Dakota; if you want four with room to spread, the round Aaronsburg.
Is the top real wood?
No. The tops are oak-effect, walnut-effect or black, all wood-effect finishes on a black metal frame, and we say effect rather than wood.
Which top?
